1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Removing sericin from the periphery of silk without damage to silk fibroin (SF) to obtain high-molecular-weight SF is a major challenge in the field of SF-based biomaterials. In this study, four neutral proteases, subtilisin, trypsin, bromelain and papain, were used to degum silk, and the degumming efficiency of the proteases and their influence on the molecular weight (MW) of regenerated silk fibroin were studied. The results indicated that all four neutral proteases could remove sericin from silk almost completely, and they caused less damage to SF fibers than Na
